Luke Beveridge to headline VAFA Season Launch

Tickets are now on sale for the 2026 VAFA Season Launch on Wednesday, April 15, at River’s Edge on the banks of the Yarra.

Western Bulldogs premiership coach and triple St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers premiership coach Luke Beveridge will be the special guest speaker as the Tigers prepare to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the incredible hat-trick that saw them win the Premier C, Premier B and Premier Men’s flags from 2006-08.

Host Jason Bennett will chat with Beveridge about the VAFA successes that launched him into the elite coaching ranks, and garner some insight into building a premiership dynasty at local level.

The VAFA’s Certificates of Merit will be presented, as will the Club Championship Shield.

It’s the perfect way to launch the new season, so grab your tickets today!
